Genesis 27
1 And it cometh to pass that Isaac [is] aged, and his eyes are too dim for seeing, and he calleth Esau his elder son, and saith unto him, 'My son;' and he saith unto him, 'Here [am] I.'
Isake atakalamba maso ake anachita khungu mwakuti sankatha kuona. Iye anayitana mwana wake wamkulu Esau nati kwa iye, “Mwana wanga.” Iye anayankha, “Ine abambo.”
2 And he saith, 'Lo, I pray thee, I have become aged, I have not known the day of my death;
Isake anati, “Tsopano ine ndakalamba, ndipo sindidziwa tsiku langa lakufa.
3 and now, take up, I pray thee, thy instruments, thy quiver, and thy bow, and go out to the field, and hunt for me provision,
Tsono tenga zida zako, muvi wako ndi uta, pita kuthengo ukandiphere nyama.
4 and make for me tasteful things, [such] as I have loved, and bring in to me, and I do eat, so that my soul doth bless thee before I die.'
Undikonzere chakudya chabwino monga muja ndimakonderamu ndipo ubwere nacho kwa ine kuti ndidye ndi kuti ndikudalitse ndisanamwalire.”
5 And Rebekah is hearkening while Isaac is speaking unto Esau his son; and Esau goeth to the field to hunt provision — to bring in;
Koma Rebeka amamvetsera pamene Isake amayankhula ndi mwana wake Esau. Esau atanyamuka kupita kuthengo kukaphera abambo ake nyama,
6 and Rebekah hath spoken unto Jacob her son, saying, 'Lo, I have heard thy father speaking unto Esau thy brother, saying,
Rebeka anati kwa mwana wake Yakobo, “Taona ndamva abambo ako akuwuza mʼbale wako Esau kuti,
7 Bring for me provision, and make for me tasteful things, and I do eat, and bless thee before Jehovah before my death.
‘Bweretsere nyama yakutchire ndipo undikonzere chakudya chokoma kuti ndidye; kuti ndikudalitse pamaso pa Yehova ndisanamwalire.’
8 'And now, my son, hearken to my voice, to that which I am commanding thee:
Tsopano mwana wanga, mvetsetsa ndipo uchite zimene ndikuwuze:
9 Go, I pray thee, unto the flock, and take for me from thence two good kids of the goats, and I make them tasteful things for thy father, [such] as he hath loved;
Pita ku khola, ukatenge ana ambuzi abwino awiri, kuti ndikonzere abambo ako chakudya chokoma monga amakondera.
10 and thou hast taken in to thy father, and he hath eaten, so that his soul doth bless thee before his death.
Kenaka upite nacho chakudyacho kwa abambo ako kuti adye ndi kukudalitsa asanafe.”
11 And Jacob saith unto Rebekah his mother, 'Lo, Esau my brother [is] a hairy man, and I a smooth man,
Koma Yakobo anati kwa Rebeka amayi ake, “Komatu mʼbale wanga Esau ndi munthu wa khungu la ubweya zedi, ndipo ine ndine munthu wa khungu losalala.
12 it may be my father doth feel me, and I have been in his eyes as a deceiver, and have brought upon me disesteem, and not a blessing;'
Mwina abambo anga adzandikhudza, ndipo ndidzaoneka kuti ndawapusitsa. Tsono ndizadzitengera temberero mʼmalo mwa madalitso.”
13 and his mother saith to him, 'On me thy disesteem, my son; only hearken to my voice, and go, take for me.'
Amayi ake anati kwa iye, “Mwana wanga, temberero limenelo ligwere ine. Iwe ungochita zimene ine ndikukuwuza; pita kanditengere timbuzito.”
14 And he goeth, and taketh, and bringeth to his mother, and his mother maketh tasteful things, [such] as his father hath loved;
Choncho anapita nakatenga timbuzito ndi kubwera nato kwa amayi ake. Choncho Rebeka anaphika chakudya chokoma monga momwe Isake amakondera.
15 and Rebekah taketh the desirable garments of Esau her elder son, which [are] with her in the house, and doth put on Jacob her younger son;
Tsono Rebeka anatenga zovala zabwino kwambiri za Esau mwana wake wamkulu zimene zinali mʼnyumba namuveka Yakobo.
16 and the skins of the kids of the goats she hath put on his hands, and on the smooth of his neck,
Anamuvekanso manja ake ndi khosi lake ndi zikopa za mwana wambuzi.
17 and she giveth the tasteful things, and the bread which she hath made, into the hand of Jacob her son.
Kenaka, anamupatsa Yakobo chakudya chokoma chija chimene anaphika pamodzi ndi buledi.
18 And he cometh in unto his father, and saith, 'My father;' and he saith, 'Here [am] I; who [art] thou, my son?'
Yakobo anapita kwa abambo ake ndipo anati, “Abambo anga.” Ndipo anayankha, “Eya, kodi ndiwe mwana wanga uti?”
19 And Jacob saith unto his father, 'I [am] Esau thy first-born; I have done as thou hast spoken unto me; rise, I pray thee, sit, and eat of my provision, so that thy soul doth bless me.'
Yakobo anati kwa abambo ake, “Ndine Esau mwana wanu woyamba. Ndachita monga munandiwuzira. Chonde dzukani ndi kukhala tsonga kuti mudyeko nyama ndakukonzeraniyi kuti tsono mundidalitse.”
20 And Isaac saith unto his son, 'What [is] this thou hast hasted to find, my son?' and he saith, 'That which Jehovah thy God hath caused to come before me.'
Isake anafunsa mwana wake, “Wayipeza msanga chotere bwanji mwana wanga?” Iye anayankha, “Yehova Mulungu wanu anandithandiza kuti ndiyipeze.”
21 And Isaac saith unto Jacob, 'Come nigh, I pray thee, and I feel thee, my son, whether thou [art] he, my son Esau, or not.'
Pamenepo Isake anati kwa Yakobo, “Tabwera pafupi ndikukhudze mwana wanga, kuti ndidziwedi ngati uli mwana wanga Esau kapena ayi.”
22 And Jacob cometh nigh unto Isaac his father, and he feeleth him, and saith, 'The voice [is] the voice of Jacob, and the hands hands of Esau.'
Yakobo anasendera kufupi ndi abambo ake Isake ndipo anamukhudza nati, “Mawuwa ndi mawu a Yakobo koma mikonoyi ndi mikono ya Esau.”
23 And he hath not discerned him, for his hands have been hairy, as the hands of Esau his brother, and he blesseth him,
Sanamuzindikire, popeza mikono yake inali ndi ubweya ngati ya mʼbale wake Esau; choncho anamudalitsa.
24 and saith, 'Thou art he — my son Esau?' and he saith, 'I [am].'
Isake anafunsa, “Kodi ndiwedi mwana wanga Esau?” Yakobo anayankha, “Inde ndine.”
25 And he saith, 'Bring nigh to me, and I do eat of my son's provision, so that my soul doth bless thee;' and he bringeth nigh to him, and he eateth; and he bringeth to him wine, and he drinketh.
Ndipo iye anati, “Mwana wanga, patseko nyama yakoyo ndidye kuti ndikudalitse.” Yakobo anabwera ndi nyama ija kwa Isake ndipo anadya. Kenaka anamupatsanso vinyo ndipo anamwa.
26 And Isaac his father saith to him, 'Come nigh, I pray thee, and kiss me, my son;'
Tsono Isake anati kwa Yakobo, “Bwera kuno mwana wanga undipsompsone.”
27 and he cometh nigh, and kisseth him, and he smelleth the fragrance of his garments, and blesseth him, and saith, 'See, the fragrance of my son [is] as the fragrance of a field which Jehovah hath blessed;
Choncho anapita namupsompsona. Apa Isake anamva fungo la zovala zake, ndipo anamudalitsa nati, “Haa, fungo la mwana wanga lili ngati fungo la munda umene Yehova waudalitsa.
28 and God doth give to thee of the dew of heaven, and of the fatness of the earth, and abundance of corn and wine;
Mulungu akugwetsere mame akumwamba ndipo minda yako ibale tirigu wambiri ndi vinyo watsopano.
29 peoples serve thee, and nations bow themselves to thee, be thou mighty over thy brethren, and the sons of thy mother bow themselves to thee; those who curse thee [are] cursed, and those who bless thee [are] blessed.'
Mitundu ya anthu ikutumikire iwe ndipo anthu akugwadire iwe. Ukhale wolamula abale ako, ndipo ana aamuna a amayi ako akugwadire. Amene akutemberera iwe atembereredwe ndipo amene adalitsa iwe adalitsike.”
30 And it cometh to pass, as Isaac hath finished blessing Jacob, and Jacob is only just going out from the presence of Isaac his father, that Esau his brother hath come in from his hunting;
Isake atatsiriza kudalitsa Yakobo, atangochoka pamaso pa abambo akewo, Esau anabwera kuchokera kosaka kuja.
31 and he also maketh tasteful things, and bringeth to his father, and saith to his father, 'Let my father arise, and eat of his son's provision, so that thy soul doth bless me.'
Nayenso anakonza chakudya chokoma nabwera nacho kwa abambo ake. Ndipo anati kwa iye, “Chonde abambo, dzukani mukhale tsonga kuti mudye nyamayi ndi kuti mundidalitse.”
32 And Isaac his father saith to him, 'Who [art] thou?' and he saith, 'I [am] thy son, thy first-born, Esau;'
Abambo ake, Isake, anamufunsa kuti, “Ndiwe yani?” Iye anayankha, “Ndine mwana wanu woyamba Esau.”
33 and Isaac trembleth a very great trembling, and saith, 'Who, now, [is] he who hath provided provision, and bringeth in to me, and I eat of all before thou comest in, and I bless him? — yea, blessed is he.'
Isake ananjenjemera kwambiri nati, “Nanga ndani uja anakapha nyama kutchire nʼkudzandipatsa? Ine ndadya kale, ndadya nyamayo iwe utangotsala pangʼono kubwera ndipo ndamudalitsa ndipo adzakhaladi wodalitsika.”
34 When Esau heareth the words of his father, then he crieth a very great and bitter cry, and saith to his father, 'Bless me, me also, O my father;'
Esau atamva mawu a abambo ake, analira mokweza ndi mowawidwa mtima nati kwa abambo ake, “Inenso dalitseni abambo anga!”
35 and he saith, 'Thy brother hath come with subtilty, and taketh thy blessing.'
Koma iye anati, “Mʼbale wako anabwera mwachinyengo ndipo watenga madalitso ako.”
36 And he saith, 'Is it because [one] called his name Jacob that he doth take me by the heel these two times? my birthright he hath taken; and lo, now, he hath taken my blessing;' he saith also, 'Hast thou not kept back a blessing for me?'
Esau anati, “Kodi nʼchifukwa chake iyeyu dzina lake lili Yakobo eti? Aka nʼkachiwiri kundinyenga: Anatenga ukulu wanga, pano watenga madalitso anga!” Kenaka anafunsa, “Kodi simunandisungireko ena madalitsowo?”
37 And Isaac answereth and saith to Esau, 'Lo, a mighty one have I set him over thee, and all his brethren have I given to him for servants, and [with] corn and wine have I sustained him; and for thee now, what shall I do, my son?'
Koma Isake anamuyankha nati, “Ndamudalitsa iye kuti akhale wokulamulira iwe. Ndaperekanso abale ake onse kuti akhale omutumikira iye, ndipo ndamudalitsa ndi tirigu wambiri, ndi vinyo watsopano. Ndiye ndingakuchitirenso chiyani mwana wanga?”
38 And Esau saith unto his father, 'One blessing hast thou my father? bless me, me also, O my father;' and Esau lifteth up his voice, and weepeth.
Esau anati kwa abambo ake, “Kodi muli ndi dalitso limodzi lokhali, abambo anga? Inenso mundidalitse chonde abambo anga!” Pomwepo Esau analira mokuwa.
39 And Isaac his father answereth and saith unto him, 'Lo, of the fatness of the earth is thy dwelling, and of the dew of the heavens from above;
Tsono Isake abambo ake anamuyankha kuti, “Malo ako okhalapo sadzabala dzinthu, ndipo mvula sidzagwa pa minda yako.
40 and by thy sword dost thou live, and thy brother dost thou serve; and it hath come to pass when thou rulest, that thou hast broken his yoke from off thy neck.'
Udzakhala ndi moyo podalira lupanga ndipo udzatumikira mʼbale wako. Koma idzafika nthawi pamene udzakhala mfulu udzachotsa goli lake mʼkhosi mwako.”
41 And Esau hateth Jacob, because of the blessing with which his father blessed him, and Esau saith in his heart, 'The days of mourning [for] my father draw near, and I slay Jacob my brother.'
Ndipo Esau anamusungira chiwembu Yakobo chifukwa cha madalitso amene abambo ake anamupatsa. Esau anati kwa iye yekha, “Masiku olira abambo anga ayandikira; pambuyo pake ndidzamupha mʼbale wangayu Yakobo.”
42 And the words of Esau her elder son are declared to Rebekah, and she sendeth and calleth for Jacob her younger son, and saith unto him, 'Lo, Esau thy brother is comforting himself in regard to thee — to slay thee;
Pamene Rebeka anamva zimene mwana wake wamkulu Esau ankaganiza, anayitanitsa Yakobo nati kwa iye, “Mʼbale wako Esau akulingalira zakuti akuphe kuti akulipsire.
43 and now, my son, hearken to my voice, and rise, flee for thyself unto Laban my brother, to Haran,
Tsopano mwana wanga, chita zimene ndinene: Nyamuka tsopano, uthawire kwa mlongo wanga Labani ku Harani.
44 and thou hast dwelt with him some days, till thy brother's fury turn back,
Ukakhale naye kwa kanthawi mpaka mkwiyo wa mʼbale wako utatsika.
45 till thy brother's anger turn back from thee, and he hath forgotten that which thou hast done to him, and I have sent and taken thee from thence; why am I bereaved even of you both the same day?'
Tsono mkwiyo wa mʼbale wakoyo ukadzatsika ndi kuyiwala zonse wamuchitirazi, ndidzatuma munthu kuti adzakutenge. Nanga nditayirenji nonse awiri nthawi imodzi?”
46 And Rebekah saith unto Isaac, 'I have been disgusted with my life because of the presence of the daughters of Heth; if Jacob take a wife of the daughters of Heth, like these — from the daughters of the land — why do I live?'
Tsono Rebeka anati kwa Isake, “Ine sindikukondwera nawo anamwali a Chihiti. Ndipo ngati Yakobo angapeze mbeta kuno mwa anamwali a Chihitiwa, ndiye kuli bwino kungofa.”
